- Fix version mismatch: __init__.py had 'v1.0.0', pyproject.toml had '0.1.0'
Now both use '0.1.0' (no v prefix — added in display code only)
- Add __release_date__ for CalVer date tracking alongside SemVer version
- Fix double-v bug in cmd_version (was printing 'vv1.0.0')
- Update banner title to show 'Hermes Agent v0.1.0 (2026.3.12)' format
- Update cli.py banner to match new format
- Add scripts/release.py: full release automation tool
- Generates categorized changelogs from git history
- Maps git authors to GitHub @mentions (70+ contributors)
- Supports dry-run preview and --publish mode
- Creates annotated CalVer git tags + GitHub Releases
- Bumps semver in source files automatically
- Usage: python scripts/release.py --bump minor --publish
- Add .release_notes.md to .gitignore
Versioning scheme: CalVer tags (v2026.3.12) + SemVer display (v0.1.0)
- Removed legacy cron daemon functionality, integrating cron job execution directly into the gateway process for improved efficiency.
- Updated CLI commands to reflect changes, replacing `hermes cron daemon` with `hermes cron status` and enhancing documentation for cron job management.
- Clarified messaging in the README and other documentation regarding the gateway's role in managing cron jobs.
- Removed obsolete terminal_hecate tool and related configurations to simplify the codebase.
- Added a new `skill_manager_tool` to enable agents to create, update, and delete their own skills, enhancing procedural memory capabilities.
- Updated the skills directory structure to support user-created skills in `~/.hermes/skills/`, allowing for better organization and management.
- Enhanced the CLI and documentation to reflect the new skill management functionalities, including detailed instructions on creating and modifying skills.
- Implemented a manifest-based syncing mechanism for bundled skills to ensure user modifications are preserved during updates.
- Updated `.gitignore` to exclude `testlogs` directory.
- Refactored `handle_web_function_call` in `model_tools.py` to support running async functions in existing event loops, improving compatibility with Atropos.
- Introduced a thread pool executor in `agent_loop.py` for running synchronous tool calls that internally use `asyncio.run()`, preventing deadlocks.
- Added `ToolError` class to track tool execution errors, enhancing error reporting during agent loops.
- Updated `wandb_log` method in `hermes_base_env.py` to log tool error statistics for better monitoring.
- Implemented patches in `patches.py` to ensure async-safe operation of tools within Atropos's event loop.
- Enhanced `ToolContext` and `terminal_tool.py` to utilize the new async handling, improving overall tool execution reliability.
- Added new environments for reinforcement learning, including `HermesSweEnv` for software engineering tasks and `TerminalTestEnv` for inline testing.
- Introduced `ToolContext` for unrestricted access to tools during reward computation.
- Updated `.gitignore` to exclude `wandb/` directory.
- Enhanced `README.md` with detailed architecture and usage instructions for Atropos environments.
- Added configuration files for SWE and terminal test environments to streamline setup.
- Removed unnecessary compiled Python files from `__pycache__`.
- Added `prompt_toolkit` as a direct dependency for interactive CLI support.
- Updated `modal` optional dependency to require `swe-rex[modal]>=1.4.0` for improved cloud execution capabilities.
- Enhanced `messaging` optional dependencies to include `aiohttp>=3.9.0` for WhatsApp bridge communication.
- Refined installation scripts to check for Python version requirements, emphasizing the need for Python 3.11+ for RL training tools.
- Improved setup scripts to ensure proper installation of submodules and dependencies, enhancing user experience during setup.
- Added 'images/' to the ignore list to prevent tracking of image files.
- Retained existing entries for private keys and CLI config to maintain security and privacy.
- Added patterns to ignore private key files (*.ppk, *.pem) and any files starting with 'privvy'.
- Included cli-config.yaml in the ignore list to prevent sensitive SSH paths from being tracked.
- Added entries for `node_modules/`, `browser-use/`, and `agent-browser/` to prevent unnecessary files from being tracked.
- Updated `data/*` entry to `data/*` for consistency in ignoring data files.
- Ensured no newline at the end of the file for proper formatting.
- Updated batch processing to include robust resume functionality by scanning completed prompts based on content rather than indices, improving recovery from failures.
- Implemented retry logic for image downloads with exponential backoff to handle transient failures effectively.
- Refined image generation tool to utilize the FLUX 2 Pro model, updating descriptions and parameters for clarity and consistency.
- Added new configuration scripts for GLM 4.7 and Imagen tasks, enhancing usability and logging capabilities.
- Removed outdated scripts and test files to streamline the codebase.
